ye the niebour had it take down from there front garden with a crane i was whet and ask if i could have a little bit and this is some of what i was offered but i was offered about 6 pieces total weight was 15 tonnes so 2 tonnes was a lot
but i ask the tree surgeon what would happen to the bit i did not take and the answer was burn or chip :down:
